OT, but I'm using your app on a stock Nexus 7 (at 4.4.4), and I find a couple of controls very difficult to trigger, while others respond just fine at the first touch.

The "back up 30 seconds" button can be very fussy and difficult to trigger. Sometimes it takes many touches before it will trigger.

Also, when in a series the end titles of an episode display, it can be quite difficult to get a touch to register so that the titles play out and the app does not skip forward to the next episode before they do. (And even then, another count-down starts that will auto-launch the next episode. I wish (and expressed to your call-in support) that you would add a user account setting to disable this.)

Sorry for the OT, but I would think you'd want the app more responsive in this regard. As I said, the other controls/buttons do not exhibit this difficulty; they are immediately responsive.

I'll take the downvotes if that's necessary.

Netflix had months-long problems with the audio on some of their programs, including programs that others here mentioned watching.

It was only after I made some comments regarding these audio problems, here and on Reddit, that they were fixed.

(I'd reported them via Netflix's problem reporting mechanisms, months earlier when I discovered them, to no effect.)
